Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell HWM-335 QuickSteam 3-Gallon Warm Moisture Humidifier
Customer Review: Doesn't Last
Summary: 2 Stars
The product works great but doesn't last. After 6 months, the heating element burns out. Manufacturer replaced the damaged item, but the new one burnt out in 6 months. It cost about $20 to ship it back. Not worth the hassle a second time around.Customer Review: DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this humidifier on 10/28/2008 and it was delivered about a week later. I set it up in my office, but since it was warm in Georgia until 2 weeks ago, I didn't need to refill it.
Last week I moved it downstairs to replace another Honeywell warm mist unit (2 year old) that had given up the ghost.
After only 2 weeks it quit working - I cleaned it twice and the power to it still wouldn't work.
After 20 minutes on hold (I tried over the weekend too - but Customer Service at KAZ - the real seller - has the weekend off) I was finally connected to a "service" representative today.
Sure they'll take the unit (I only need to send the electronic part) back but I have to pay the shipping on that, plus (if you read the fine print) an additional $10 for them to send me the replacement part. That's with the "3 year (very) limited warranty" in place.
Let's see - the unit cost $19.99 and worked for 2 weeks - now they want me to pay them ~$16.00 for them to replace a defective part??
You can take your chances - but I won't again!!
Customer Review: Good Design, but VERY Poor Quality
Summary: 1 Stars
I liked the design of the unit, and initially it functioned well. It quietly puts out a lot of moisture. Construction quality seemed flimsy, and sure enough, after less than three months the heating element burned out. The manufacturer will replace the unit, if it finds a defect in material or workmanship. However, you must pay shipping and $15.00 for their time; not really worth the hassle.
I don't recommend this product.
Customer Review: less than one star
Summary: 1 Stars
Badly designed in all aspects, starting with terrible water tank that will not sit stable on a flat surface; also needs cleaning once a week or will not run, terrible non intuitive controls so you have to read the instructions to figure out how to run it. hard to believe how a product could be so difficult to use in all aspects.
Note how many negative reviews there are for these Honeywell gadgets, and find another product
Customer Review: Don't waste your $ on this product!
Summary: 1 Stars
Mine ran great for about 5 days when I set it up in mid-January 2007, then quit running (wouldn't power up). I cleaned it, followed all the troubleshooting instructions, nothing, nada.
Do not waste your money on this!
Honeywell used to make great products, but this unit is made overseas with a different technology.
I'm swearing off Honeywell products until they get their act together again!
